Having problems with your Samsung SyncMaster 740N 17" LCD Monitor ?

Syncmaster 740n was working fine but has not gone black when i turned it on this morning and now i cant see anything, ive put it onto another computer but its still black and not showing anything sumtimes i can faintly see stuff though.

Answers :

Hello,

This sounds like the inverter power supply has gone out. This is a very common problem for LCD monitors after a few years.In the 740N monitors they used two different power supplies but both had the same problems. If you can open the monitor and take a few pictures of the board and email them to me at [email protected] I will tell you what needs to be done on that version of board. If you don't want to do the repair yourself we do offer a repair service for $35 plus return shipping.

Black screen I got a new computer. I wanted to restore my old computer (Dell 2350 XP) to factory. I was told to put in the service pack 2 CD. I did that but after it installed it my screen resolution was bad & it wouldn't let me change it. I am new to this computer thing & obviously did something wrong. Because my screen now goes black after the Dell logo & Windows logo. Then I hear a beep. If I hit an F# key it says Key board error or keyboard not found. I tried another keyboard but sam
